Notifications & Reminders

Motion automatically sends notifications for events to keep both hosts and invitees informed. These apply to events created in Motion, through booking links, or synced from external calendars.

Behavior

• Confirmations → When an event is created in Motion (or via booking links), confirmation emails are sent to all attendees.

• Reminders → Attendees receive reminder emails before the meeting begins. Default reminder times are pulled from the source calendar settings (e.g., Google/Outlook).

• Reschedules → If an event time changes, Motion updates the event on all connected calendars and sends updated notifications.

• Cancellations → Canceling an event in Motion or an external calendar removes it from both systems and notifies attendees.

• Guests → Additional invitees added to an event receive the same notifications as primary participants.

Limitations

• Reminder timing cannot be customized in Motion; it follows the defaults from the external calendar provider.

• Motion does not send push or in-app notifications for every event change — external calendar settings drive most attendee reminders.

Why it matters Notifications and reminders ensure that all participants know when and where events happen, while keeping Motion’s calendar in sync with external platforms.
